[ male announcer ] hear from our chefs on facebook this friday! >>> we've endured too many of these tragedies in the past few years. and each time i learn the news i react not as a president, but as anybody else would. as a parent. and that was especially true today. i know there's not a parent in america who doesn't feel the same overwhelming grief that i do. the majority of those who died today were children. beautiful little kids between the ages of 5 and 10 years old. they had their entire lives ahead of them. birthdays, graduations, weddings. kids of their own. among the fallen were also teachers, men and women who devoted their lives to helping our children fulfill their dreams. >> we

jeff? who are they addressing with this horrible act. that they want to know that they did it. >> they're addressing society. you marginalize me. you don't think much of me. you hate me. you don't want me to be part of you. and, in fact, what we know, chris, this is what they really think about themselves. and then they project it onto those loved ones and they project it out to society. so this is the way where they perhaps felt like they have no power. now they have all of the power. and that's why they can stare a child in the eyes and shoot them point-blank because they are in control of that horror. >> dr. wiener, who are they talking to? >> well, you know, i think that what they're trying to do is send a message that they mean something in this world. it's a very sick way. but i've seen people in my practice who actually talk to me about having these fantasies of going in and committing mass atrocities. when i ask them about it, they say well, my life means nothing. and when they look at people who seem happy, who seem like they're

with me are jeff zeleny with "the new york times" and susan milligan who is contributing editor at ""u.s. news & world report."" you laugh, it's not funny. you both attended that harvard institute of policy forum. they just released, we have the audio recordings of that not filmed event. we have a real autopsy of what went on behind the scenes. during the primaries, the conventions and the general election on the romney side. let's start with the republican race for the nomination. romney's campaign manager matt rhodes was asked whether his candidate had gone too far to the right on immigration when challenged by texas governor rick perry and whether he had any regret about that. rhodes brings up the romney attacks on perry for calling social security a ponzi scheme and says he now feels that would have been enough to defeat perry. he says he didn't need to take the hard right stance on immigration. let's listen to this. here it is. >> i regret that -- i truly believe that people were shocked that we were going after governor perry in a republican primary on social security. they were

when we filed this case, chris and sandy and jeff and paul had been together for ten years. now they have been together for almost 12, over 13 years. chris and sandy's twin boys were just entering high school. when this case is heard, they will be getting ready to graduate from high school. their moms deserve the same freedom to marry just as everyone else has in this country. and in this country we don't deny a certain portion of our citizens a fundamental right. we just don't. it's not american. >> isn't it true that when we had this in the court in the ninth in the appellate level, nobody came forward because nobody could come up with what you call a justification, some compelling reason. just chat on that point. you raised it. there's no compelling reason against giving the rights to people, the right to marriage. >> that's exactly right, chris. it's important to note in both of these cases, the united states government has refused to defend doma, the federal law that's now before this court, and when we filed the case right here in california, as one has to do, we sued

jeff flight told me this morning this was a huge embarrassment. where could we go from here? >> i have no idea. it would be nice to go somewhere. but we're nowhere. you know, we talk about gridlock and divided government. and, in the past, there are people who divide a government that's good. when we have this sort of political gridlock, we get things done. that is no longer true. as a matter of fact, you have to be pessimistic. you see us lurching from cliff to cliff. if you see us getting passed this one, how can you be convinced we're actually passed it. there's going to be a debt ceiling coming up, there's going to be a fight over the sequester, at some point, when that is supposed to kick back in. this is no way to run a railroad. and it's certainly no way to run the united states of america. >> is there any reason to believe, ryan, it will be any different i.? that will be more democrats in the 113th congress? is it going to make any difference? >> the one thing that could make a difference is if president obama actually sticks to his pledge that he's unwilling to negot
